In the general approach, position numbers can be set with various degrees of authority. Certain position numbers may not be allowed to be changed All this can be controlled via this statement. Default is that only empty position numbers are updated within a session, not those already equipped with a previous value.

[/FINAL]; |

/EMPTY |
indicates that empty position numbers should be updated (default). |
|
|
/TEMPORARY |
indicates that already set position numbers that are not "final" should be updated. |
|
|
/FINAL |
update final position numbers. |
|
Note: These three options are independent, for example, final position numbers can be treated without disturbing the empty position numbers. In other words, all options can be given simultaneously.
Information about position numbers that could not be updated during the session will be printed to the usual log file. This might be due to that the already set position number had a different authority than the supplied harshness value.
